You emailed me directly.

I am forwarding your message to the list, so that all listmembers can
read and reply to your query.

In the future, please email your questions to:

LINUX_Newbies@yahoogroups.com

...or visit: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/LINUX_Newbies/

...and post a message through the web messaging interface.

You did not provide enough information in your email.

Please post the Linux distribution you are running on your laptop...
like Red Hat, or CentOS, or Ubuntu, etc.

Most modern Linux distributions have distro-specific applications, like
'yum' or 'apt-get' that permit you to easily install applications,
without your having to understand how to determine which additional
applications might have to also be installed (these applications are
called 'dependencies'), and install everything you need, all at once,
seamlessly.
